Carceral Humanitarianism testifies that humanitarian aid and human rights discourse are always political and partisan. Forerun ..." |

 | | Animal Lessons(9th Edition) How They Teach Us to Be Human by Kelly Oliver Paperback, 376 Pages, Published 2009 by Columbia University Press ISBN-13: 978-0-231-14727-9, ISBN: 0-231-14727-9 "Philosophy reads humanity against animality, arguing that "man" is man because he is separate from beast.

We sacrifice animals to establish human kinship, but without the anim ..." |
